Being Christian is deep in one's heart and soul. No one can cause a person to be or become Christian without that person accepting Christ as part of their spiritual being (not persona). No legislation, no court, no gun, no militia can make any person or peoples Christian. It might have the opposite effect.
I’m still trying to figure out what Trump did during his presidency that makes you fear him as president again. You only mentioned two things- his conversation with the leader of Ukraine in which both leaders agreed to work on corruption, and the rally where Trump asked the crowds to March peacefully to the Capitol(which Trump hating CNN would not allow the nation to know, as they cut off their reporting before his statements). Are you deliberately falsifying the events to support your videos and future book?
A very concise presentation of what is happening with the Trump movement,MAGAS ,the man in the lead is of reprehensible character but I hear,oh,so did David commited adultry,Jacob cheated so God will use Trump to lead themI explained that those men repented of thier sins before God used them& Trump has not& may never repent& turn from who he has become,power& status&popularity has a grip on him.
The examples he is trying to create here are such a stretch. It’s ridiculous. People who cheered for Jesus but chose barabas, obviously their hearts were never saved. And btw, most of those people in the crowd choosing Barabas were paid off by the Pharisees. Sounds more familiar to BLM and our gov if you really want to compare past and present. You are more than able, to be saved and have Jesus Lord of your life, and also, support Trump and love your country. Stop demonizing the two and lumping every Christian trump supporter together.
I want to find a church that is apolitical and only focuses on the truth of the gospel. Also to find a church that doesn’t have special patriotic services proclaiming USA as the only true nation that God endorses. Hard to find
To hear so-called Christians defend this horrible man makes me sick. Trump is a phony. The fact that he chose Paula White as his spiritual advisor tells me all I need to know
Guys like this pastor and the mega church preachers are why I can't stand going to church anymore. He pretends to be virtuous but he is really what he is ranting about.
it’s fine to love Jesus and America too- just keep Jesus first. Christians do not have a Donald Trump problem if they put Jesus first. There are Christians who are just as passionate about the other side. you are painting with too broad a brush.
No one is perfect. We are all works in progress. God uses us for different purposes. Saul became Paul. The unfortunate thing is one candidate sides with death and abortion, the other does not. Those who side with death are on the wrong side.
The 2 things are not mutually exclusive. Being against a fascist cult, has nothing do do with you thinking you have the right to tell me what to do with my body because of your imaginary sky daddy,. have a nice day
Why would anyone listen to this guy who supports Democrats who want abortion at anytime, a true pastor would be screaming at the tops of his lungs against abortion, killing babies. He is on the wrong path!!!
Pat are you saying that Kamala who wants abortion at anytime. You are not a true Christian if you support that. I would not listen to your voice at all
Welcome back, Pat! I’m excited about your book. Will case discounts be available? I ask because I think your book would be a very thoughtful and tasteful Christmas gift to all my Republican friends this holiday season. (Actually, I lied. I don’t have any Republican friends.)
Renee Shaffer met Devil and Jesus. "Devil loves to try to puff himself up and bluster his way into, I'm so powerful. Jesus doesn't need to do any of that. HE JUST IS. HE JUST IS.
In future after the election, I'd like to see more videos about your spiritual insights. I really appreciate your videos. Am looking forward to reading your book.
So you judge Donald Trump which I don’t think is your place as a Christian but Joe Biden who has abandoned his oath of office by ignoring our immigration laws, taken money from foreign countries, and is in favor of abortion on demand and you say you’re a former Christian pastor? We are not a theocracy and I’m not voting for Trump because I want him for his morality. I’m voting for him because he’s the best person to run the country and I think the other side is leading us to a Marxist ideology that is straight from satan.
Thank you pastor for this enlightening scripture awareness and understanding I also thank God for your encouragement to tell me the truth from the Bible To God be the glory 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
So abandon Donald for who? Kamala, let’s kill babies, Harris? No. Let your bitterness go. With these two as the only options then Trump is better. Your very one sided
No such thing as MAGA Christianity, these people are ignorant, beating a false drum, the only things that keep me a conservative is I hate ABORTION, I believe Israel is Gods and needs our help, and I dislike ANTISEMITES, which if these people feel as they do- are one in the same,and I think the manipulation of people by ignorance by these is just the tip on the iceberg -It sure would be nice to be in Ancient Israel right now, the law of Moses places FALSE TEACHERS right where they are supposed to be, under a pile of rocks.Ignorance- Pleae come Lord Jesus, they have lied and misconstrued truth.Judge them Lord for making your people go astray. And QUIT calling yourself Evangelicals- you give Followers of Christ a bad name.. Trump is a HUMAN, not unlike I am- you well speak for yourself
@@culturefaithandpolitics To your knowledge has she lied about anything? Also, what’s your thoughts on her position on abortion and the lgbt community?
Thank you for this! Very insightful! We have seen analogous issues in our small town church in the past. It helps explain what we have gone through! Plus for these times, we have often looked on from here in Canada, and wondered what was going on south of the border? Great thoughts, wisdom and insights!
Thank you for speaking truth! I am grieved by how many of my Christian friends, family and church family support trump and turn a blind eye to what you are teaching here.
